As mentioned already openbox (the default desktop for the Pi) does the usual thing and Alt-drag anywhere on the window should move it where you want.
If you are using linux (or Apple) I find connecting to the Pi with ethernet and:
ssh -X pi@192.168.1.20 replacing the IP with the actual one of course, it is usually announced on the console at the end of the boot process, then set your laptop ethernet to a compatible manual IP you are set to go.
is a very comfortable way to work, the pd windows are then on my laptop and the Pi does not need to run a desktop at all.
pcmanfm &
should get you a file browser window, so you can navigate and open things in the familiar GUI way, if that is what you prefer.
